WW Week 4 veg, when to flip?

[Growthc]

Grow space is 1.2x1.2x2.0m, 600w HPS, wilma drip, canna nutes...
This is the 1st time growing WW feminised from seed. Just wondering what the consensus is about when to flip..?
Plants are roughly 10-12 inches (250-300mm) in height.
Topped once (2nd week veg), minimal pruning at this stage. Will use SCROG for this grow.
Any thoughts?

Totally subjective

They may stretch dbl to tripple in height, so biggest factor to think about

So make sure u have the room for the stretch

Thanks CS. Have taken all that into account, using SCROG should allow for a bit more height. They have had some LST.
Have read various materials on ppl vegging for shorter periods(2 - 4 weeks). Time is not a factor for me. Figured i would allow at least another 1-2 weeks.
Any recommendations on defoliating?
Overall plants are hungry n healthy.
Cheers

Lol

Not to sound like a broken record, but defol or clipping leaves is kinda up to you as well

I don't trim a lot, usually have to many plants..lol

Some really butcher them

I'll usually open up lower growth durring veg and un cover bud sites in flower

I'd suggest trying different options on a couple plants
See what u like and what works for you, ki da what I've done over the years

That was my understanding also. Have removed some lower growth since these pics were taken a few days ago. Thanks for the info!
